Proposed answer to AGWG comment issue 373 (A mechanism is "easily available")

https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/issues/373

Proposed answer:

In line to the proposal to deal with issue #375 I propose to remove The tem 'easily' in the new Success Criterion 2.2.7 Interruptions (Minimum)
which starts "A mechanism is easily available to postpone and suppress interruptions ...

Others in the discussion have noted that the term 'easily'  is "widely interpretable and person-dependent" and therefore not testable.

After the change the SC text would then read:

"A mechanism is available to postpone and suppress interruptions and changes in content, unless they are initiated by the user or involve an emergency."
